How cruel. Those folks need to turn their asses around and head over to the local supermarket and pick up some farm meat.

I can see where they are getting at that they need to feed there community. But I would suggest them going after smaller fish, this is just cruel.

Meh. They're just \"Watch your language\" whales. As long as they don't do that to humans I couldn't give two shitts or a jar of cold piss.

Actually, the same group that hunts whales there (for one day out of the year) is a major force in whale conservation.

It's more the idea behind it. I mean, it's not like they actually went out and "hunted" them. They used boats to wrangle them onto the beach, where they were killed by hundreds of waiting humans that could just have easily have gotten food, oil, etc...elsewhere.
As a hunter, I understand why you would need to harvest from overpopulated, non-native, and invasive animals as a means of conservation...but I don't like the way they killed them (sure didn't look like "clean" kills).

Thats not really a hunt though...It is more herding cattle to a slaughter house. Yea you had to go round them up but same principle.

Rounding them up is much easier than hunting them for months at sea...
Either way, a whale dies. People or animals consume it one way or another and end up getting the nutrients and resources they needed.
Why the heII are we talking about whales? We should post this on PETA.com

Dude...no. First of all you earn quote of the week, and second Steve Irwin was the Crocidile Hunter, who died before Whale Wars ever aired.

Call me cold but i agree. If they're going to use what they kill it's all fine by me. Besides, we're way more cruel to fellow humans then we are to animals.

OH COME ON EVERY TIME!
Whaling is illegal from international law there is no way to justify it. each country is allowed 2 whales per year for scientific research, japan has a quota of up to 400.
and to top it off the sea shepherds will win this one

I donยดt agree with whaling, but if you do a bit of checking,
Whaling is not Ilegal, contrary to popular belief, the only laws that are upheld concerning the hunting of whales are in regards to Mothers with Calfs, Yearlings, and spieces on the endangered spieceis list ( Regarding the original vid, Pilot Whales are not on the endangered list ).
The International Ban on Whaling applies to participating Nations, the 1986 Moratorium is a self imposed stop, again by participating Nations, guess who has decided not to participate ? Japan.
Guess who else is a supporter of the Whaling Industry ?? Oh Oh your gonna love this !!!! The one, The Only drum roll Please.......................................................................
The Prez !!! Thatยดs right !!! good old Barrack Obama !!!!!!
noe on to one of my favorite members, white wolf !!! you always put a smile on my face.

Your Joking right ? Please tell me your Joking !?? I so want to believe it was a vain attempt at sarcasm.
I fully agree in the Shepards point of view, but come on, what a bunch of Bozoยดs. Buratic acid bomb your own boat, not once but twice almost kill thier own Zodiac crews, take thier only Helicopter out of action with a grappeling hook, fake the shooting of thier Captain and get busted, get a 5.5 million dollar donation from Bob Barker, dump half into a High Speed/High Tech Trimaran, then sink the darn thing trying to block a Whaling Ship ( guess somebody should have payed better attention in Physics class, Mass + Speed requires so much space to bring to a stop ), Mutiny on thier first voyage, setting out with a damaged motor and being forced to return to port for repairs, Illegal Boarding of vessels, it is just a constant series of Fail, Fail, Fail........
It amazes me that people get thier blood up about Whales, I wonder how the Hinduยดs think about our treatment of Cows, why is there no huge movement against the slaughter of Cats and Dogs ( by the way, Thems goooddd Eatin ) by Asian countries, the mass export of Horses and Horse Meat to France for human consumption, the hunting of primates for food.

Did you guys know that PETA is actually funding meat culture research? Where they grow meat in petri dishes instead of on animals? Mmmmmmmmm tasty! I'll have the test tube turkey!
And I have no firsthand knowledge of the Sea Shepards, but from the sounds of it they routinely break maritime law. Shouldn't they be having problems with the Coast Guard?
